This is a month-long event! Stop by any time during April to participate.

Escape the hustle and bustle of urban life at William B. Umstead State Park. In this Curious Minds Adventure, you will explore the manmade lakes and hiking trails of a Wake County gem on the Piedmont East Science Trail. Plenty of interesting wildlife and plants make their home at this urban oasis inside the city limits of Raleigh. What will you find when you go?

The NC Science Trail has partnered with the NC State Parks to bring you seven new scavenger hunts this Science Festival season. Explore the wildlife, plants, trees, and outdoor recreation at state parks across the state. All you have to do is download the Goosechase app, enter the 6-digit “Join Code” (P2KP3L) and start your adventure at the William B. Umstead State Park Visitor Center. Adventures will “go live” on March 24 and can be completed at any time all month long. Complete at least 7 out of 10 missions and redeem your points back at the Visitor Center for prizes.
